DONA International has put together a new video on birth and postpartum doulas. It addresses a lot of what I have been writing about here. I would recommend watching it if you are interested in hiring a doula.
The Essential Ingredient: Doula from DONA International on Vimeo.
I am a DONA trained birth and postpartum doula, currently working on certification.
Pregnancy, birth, and new parenthood is a life-changing journey. By supporting you in pregnancy, mentoring you with Birthing from Within® prenatal classes, and caring for you through birth and postpartum as your doula, Ellie Colver will nurture you through the entire adventure. Our relationship will help you to prepare thoroughly for birth and parenting, draw from your own experiences and increase your confidence as a mother or father.
